We extend the "method of multiplicities" to get the following results, of interest in combinatorics and randomness extraction. (A) We show that every Kakeya set (a set of points that contains a line in every direction) in $\F_q^n$ must be…

A family $\mathcal{F}\subset \binom{[n]}{k}$ is called intersecting if $F\cap F'\neq \emptyset$ for all $F,F'\in \mathcal{F}$. The covering number of a family $\mathcal{F}$ is defined as the minimum size of $T\subset [n]$ such that $T\cap…

In recent years there has been a lot of interest in the study of isometry invariant Poisson processes of $k$-flats in $d$-dimensional hyperbolic space $\mathbb{H}^d$, for $0\le k\le d-1$. A phenomenon that has no counterpart in euclidean…

The object of this paper is to introduce and study the concept of quasi-geometric infinite divisibility for distributions on $\bf R_+$. These distributions arise as mixing distributions of (discrete) geometric infinitely divisible Poisson…

In this article we introduce and study the intersection graph of graded ideals of graded rings. The intersection graph of $G-$graded ideals of a graded ring $(R,G)$ is a simple graph, denoted by $Gr_G(R)$, whose vertices are the nontrivial…

We prove a simple formula for arbitrary cluster variables in the marked surfaces model. As part of the formula, we associate a labeled poset to each tagged arc, such that the associated $F$-polynomial is a weighted sum of order ideals. Each…

For $n \in \mathbb{N}$ and $\varepsilon > 0$, given a sufficiently long sequence of events in a probability space all of measure at least $\varepsilon$, some $n$ of them will have a common intersection. A more subtle pattern: for any $0 < p…

Let $I_\mathbb{X}$ be the bihomogeneous ideal of a finite set of points $\mathbb{X} \subseteq \mathbb{P}^1 \times \mathbb{P}^1$. The purpose of this note is to consider ``splittings'' of the ideal $I_\mathbb{X}$, that is, finding ideals $J$…

We study a geometric hitting-set problem in which the input consists of a set $P$ of weighted points and a family $S=H\cup V$ of axis-parallel segments in the plane. The goal is to select a minimum-weight subset of $P$ that hits every…

Introduced by Sheekey in 2016, the study of scattered polynomials over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_{q^n}$ has been increasing regarding the classification of those that are exceptional, i.e., polynomials which are scattered over infinite…

A set system $\mathcal{F}$ is $t$-\textit{intersecting}, if the size of the intersection of every pair of its elements has size at least $t$. A set system $\mathcal{F}$ is $k$-\textit{Sperner}, if it does not contain a chain of length…

We consider statistical estimations of a matrix product over the integers in a distributed setting, where we have two parties Alice and Bob; Alice holds a matrix $A$ and Bob holds a matrix $B$, and they want to estimate statistics of $A…

We propose an algorithm based on Newton's method and subdivision for finding all zeros of a polynomial system in a bounded region of the plane. This algorithm can be used to find the intersections between a line and a surface, which has…

Let $r > 0$ be an integer, let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be a finite field of $q$ elements, and let $\mathcal{A}$ be a nonempty proper subset of $\mathbb{F}_q$. Moreover, let $\mathbf{M}$ be a random $m \times n$ rank-$r$ matrix over $\mathbb{F}_q$…

Let $\mathbb{F}$ be a field, let $P \subseteq \mathbb{F}^d$ be a finite set of points, and let $\alpha,\beta \in \mathbb{F} \setminus \{0\}$. We study the quantity \[|\Pi_{\alpha, \beta}| = \{(p,q,r) \in P \times P \times P \mid p \cdot q =…

This study focuses on statistical inference for the class of quasi-infinitely divisible (QID) distributions, which was recently introduced by Lindner, Pan and Sato (2018). The paper presents a Fourier approach, based on the analogue of the…

Let $\mathcal T_n$ denote the set of all labelled spanning trees of $K_n$. A family $\mathcal F \subset \mathcal T_n$ is $t$-intersecting if for all $A, B \in \mathcal F$ the trees $A$ and $B$ share at least $t$ edges. In this paper, we…

In [5], Srijuntongsiri and Vavasis propose the "Kantorovich-Test Subdivision algorithm", or KTS, which is an algorithm for finding all zeros of a polynomial system in a bounded region of the plane. This algorithm can be used to find the…

For a family $(A_q)_{q\in Q}$ of subsets of a semigroup, the product intersection set records those exponents $h \in \mathbb{N}$ for which the $h$-fold product set of the intersection, $(\bigcap_q A_q)^h$, is equal to $\bigcap_q A_q^h$, the…
